The contest was announced in March, coming roughly 18 months after an inaugural t-shirt design contest in 2021. That contest will not continue, officials told The Sentinel.
The poster contest was sponsored by Fris Supply Shop.
“It's a great way to get the art community involved and a fun way to be able to promote the Holland Farmers Market," said owner Andrew Fris.
TeBos was raised in West Michigan and received her bachelor's degree in graphic design and marketing from Cornerstone University. She's a freelance graphic designer and photographer.
“The entire Holland Farmers Market team would like to congratulate Taylor on her award-winning poster design,” said marketing coordinator Kara de Alvare. “We are so grateful for the nearly 100 design submissions we received as part of our contest, and we were truly blown away by the level of artistic talent among our market fans. Selecting the winning design was more difficult than any of us imagined it would be!”
